Competitiveness.

"And I stay amazed, you are so much more than words could ever say.
I'll pour out my praise, on the One who never ceases to amaze me."

Was with Yeow and Tim at Orchard Ion after church service.
When the both of them went their seperate ways, I've decided to take a few floors up, like the 3rd or 4th floor. Haha, more or less likeafieldstudy.

Well, its hard to believe that actually selling toy gift collection could actually survive in such high-end rental location.
"Das Erzgebirge-Haus" was its name. Went to checked it out furthermore, found out that its a store originated from Germany. It sells mainly exclusive small wooden toys, candle holders etcetc.

Some small wooden angel toys would cost like $50 each. And the cheapest full set is like $500, comes with the decorating board and all.
And yeah, something really caught my eye. One of the display was showcasing a scenerio where people in the church were singing christmas carols. It was beautifully decorated, cost at least $1000 for the full set? Hahaha. Wanted to take a picture of the set. But it strictly says no photography and all. :(

Really, some people just have the need to posses such collectibles. Could be a form of favourite past times. Although it seems that buying such small stuffs might be lame or whatever, but this could be some of the consumer's style of spending money in their life hahaha.

Afterall I guess its business is doing really well, because so far I've not seen any shop that has the same retail mix that offers such cute and cheeesy gifts. Its at 4th floor of Ion if im not wrong, beside the coldstorage. Do take a look if you ever have the time. :)
